First Line Fridays

This week I want to post a line from one of my Kindle books. I confess that not only do I have a to-be-read list for my print books, I also have a list for my Kindle books as well! There are so many $.99 books on Amazon I consistently purchase...the book list is growing. Do any of you have a never ending to-be-read list for your Kindle novels? As always, please be sure to check out the book
lines from these other amazing bloggers too:

Today I am going to post a line from:

The Pattern Artist

by Nancy Moser

And the first line is...

1911

New York City

""Annie Wood! I demand you wipe that ridiculous smile off your face. Immediately.' Annie yanked her gaze away from the view out of the carriage and pressed a hand across her mouth to erase the offending smile."

I've never heard of this author, but her book looks interesting.Yesterday I read Pepper Basham’s book Just the Way You Are ~sigh~ It’s so good that I will read it again soon. My first line:“One step into the massive, glass-walled waiting area was all it took.”

To celebrate its release day, I will share the first line fromThe Patriot and The Loyalist by Angela K. CouchSouth Carolina, November 1780Daniel Reid slowed his horse and sucked air into his lungs as he reined to the road’s grassy edge.

There are not enough hours left in the world for me to finish all the books on my Kindle, yet that does not stop me from getting more!

OMG yes, the struggle is REAL! I keep track of all my books on Goodreads that are TBR. I have a huge pile of about 60 books on my desk, plus my books for research and writing about Eleanor, and I am now at 500+ on my Kindle. BoobBub has been very addicting for me. Luckily, I have been able to get a lot of the TBR list purchased because of BookBub though. I made a rule for myself though that I would never pay more than $1.99 for a Kindle book, unless it is one that I can't get at my library and I really, really want to read it. Very rarely will I buy one for $2.99. I also made myself promise I would never pay for cozy mysteries, unless the mysteries are a boxed set. It is hard but I am sticking to it!
